Four more Premier League matches get underway at 3pm GMT today, including Brentford v Leicester City and Southampton v Tottenham Hotspur.

At the Brentford Community Stadium, Danny Ward and Kelechi Iheanacho drop to the bench as £3.8m Fantasy Premier League (FPL) goalkeeper Daniel Iversen gets the nod between the sticks.

Despite not being seen in training ground images on Wednesday, Son Heung-min starts for Spurs today.

The Lilywhites are unchanged from Gameweek 27 but Southampton have made three changes to the side that were beaten 2-0 by Brentford in midweek.

Ibrahima Diallo, Carlos Alcaraz and Kamaldeen Sulemana are benched as Stuart Armstrong, Theo Walcott and Romeo Lavia are handed recalls.

Wout Faes and Nampalys Mendy join Iheanacho and Ward in dropping out of the Leicester XI, with Faes suspended.

Harvey Barnes, Tete and Wilfred Ndidi come into the line-up, alongside Iversen.

As for the Bees, Mikkel Damsgaard and Yonna Wissa replace Kevin Schade and Vitaly Janelt.

Aston Villa and Bournemouth are both unchanged from their respective Gameweek 27 teams.

It’s two alterations apiece at Molineux.

Pedro Neto and Joao Gomes come in for Adama Traore and Joao Moutinho for the hosts, while Leeds head coach Javi Gracia brings back Wilfried Gnonto and Weston McKennie at the expense of the injured Tyler Adams and the benched Crysencio Summerville.

    Wonder if Havertz outscores Watkins this week

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Won't be hard to

  3. Fred54

    Perisic G

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Lol I forgot I was watching on the iPlayer which is a bit behind

  4. psl
    • 8 Years

    Ollie Flopkins

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      I conveniently forgot about that game after HT

    2. Amartey Partey

      Wally Blankins

      Not Haulie Watkins

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Haulie Notkins?

    4. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      That didn't age well.

      1. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Ollie Middlkins? Hardly the haul we were hoping for

      2. Planet Head
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Like a bottle of fine milk

    5. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years

      Folly Napkins

  5. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Perisic goal bad for Kane BAPS?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Probably wasn't good

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Negligible, Peresic only subbed on late and forwards get more baps. Kane still on 2 bonus for now.

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Seems okay

  6. Cilly Bonnolly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Guessing that was Watkins?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Of course it wasn't

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Just figured because I went Havertz. 😆

  7. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Ramsey G

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      I don't even know who he plays for...

      1. Shultan
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Villa

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 18 days ago

          It was an injoke, I thought Villa only fielded Watkins.

    2. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Assist?

      1. Gandalf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Sofascore says Watkins. Can't confirm though

  8. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Watkins over Isak was a bad decision. 3rd option Havertz will probably do well too now.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Why are people pretending that that they highly considered Isak?

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        This

      2. fantasist
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Everytime he plays he's a constant threat, he plays twice in gw29 and better than Havertz. What's the big controversy

  9. Shultan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Villa goal not watkins

  10. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Theoooo

    1. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Must've felt good to score against Spurs

  11. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    FFS rival getting perisic off bench for Almiron

  12. Shultan
    • 9 Years

  13. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Walcott G Ward-Prowse A

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years

  15. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Kane Baps

  16. Red Star Toro
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Assist for Watkins I guess

  17. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Wally G

  18. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Walcott takes all the bonus!!

  19. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Mbeumo hasn't had a great game so far

  20. Shultan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Watkins assist

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      I'll take it

  21. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Watkins A?

  22. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Shitkins

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years

      Crapkins assist

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Assistkins

  23. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Comes off the defender not Watkins right? Didn’t see a replay

  24. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Shitkins A

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Need a shitkins G

  25. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Kane barely getting 1 BAP

  26. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Still nothing for Watkins? Knew he was a mistake 🙁

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Got an assist I think

    2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Assist on Ramsey's goal.

    3. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      An assist and probably that third goal that just went in…

      1. Gandalf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        Appears to be disallowed the 3rd

    4. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Nice didn't know he got an assist

  27. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Jonny RED possibility

  28. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    I don't understand how the scorers of two goals for the losing (so far) team are on more BAPs than the guy who scored for the winning one.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Walcott has a goal and an assist. Cuhna is forward and none of the Leeds scorers are. Forwards get more BPS per goal.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 18 days ago

        That's also a bit weird, isn't it? Goals are assumed from forwards, but not from defenders (hence they get more points per), so wouldn't it stand to reason they'd get more for doing things they aren't expected to?

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Perisic came on after 37 minutes, too, did he not?

  29. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Watkins to outscore Havertz.

  30. fish&chips
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 18 days ago

    Still time for a brace Toney

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      It’s the hope that kills

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 18 days ago

      Please
